Ferrara

Emilia Romagna – Ferrara: the name Ferrara appeared for the first time in 753, in a document issued by Lombard King Desiderius.

The great cultural life of the city of Ferrara, home to this luxury villa, started with the foundation of its university in 1391. Its pomp and culture then continuously grew, making the court of the House of Este one of the most prestigious in Europe.

This city in Emilia Romagna was a gathering place for men of letters such as Guarino Veronese, artists the likes of Leon Battista Alberti, Pisanello, Piero della Francesca, Rogier van der Weyden and Titian.

The School of Ferrara, a group of painters, had members such asCosmè Tura, Ercole de’ Roberti and Francesco del Cossa.

All major musicians worked for the Dukes of Ferrara, who were also patrons of immortal poets such as

Boiardo, Ariosto and Tasso.

We could also mention a few of the Lords themselves: Niccolò III, the diplomatic; Leonello, the intellectual; Borso, the magnificent; Ercole I, promoter of the Erculean Addition; and Alfonso, the soldier. But there were also famous princesses: Parisina Malatesta, Eleonora of Aragon, and Lucrezia Borgia.

This small state in Emilia Romagna was always in a precarious balance with its neighbors, until it was annexed by the Papal States in 1598.

After its Neapolitan period, Ferrara actively participated in the Risorgimento to create a Unified Italy, until it became a modern city full of echoes to the past that we can still admire today thanks to its elegant luxury estates and many prestigious monuments.
